American Telephones
Lead the World
If telephone rates are high and service poor,
the use of the service is necessarily limited, but
if the rates are reasonable and the service good,
there will be liberal use of the telephone.
The European governments have had no in
centive to maintain good service and reasonable
rates, as have the private companies in Amer
ica. That is the reason Europe has only one
telephone for every 150 persons, while in the
United States there is one telephone for every
ten persons.
